OET (OET-RV)The allotment for Manashsheh’s descendants (Yosef’s eldest son) included a special allotment for (Gilead’s father) Makir—he was given Gilead and Bashan because he was a powerful warrior.

BrTrAnd the borders of the tribe of the children of Manasse, (for he was the first-born [fn]of Joseph,) assigned to Machir the first-born of Manasse the father of Galaad, for he was a warrior, were in the land of Galaad and of Basan.


17:1 Gr. to.

ULTAnd the lot was for the tribe of Manasseh (because he was the firstborn of Joseph), for Makir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of the Gilead. And the Gilead and the Bashan were given to him because he himself was a man of war.

USTThis is a list of the land that was allotted to the tribe of Manasseh. Manasseh’s oldest son was Makir, and his grandson was Gilead. Their descendants were assigned the lands in the regions of Gilead and Bashan, in honor of Makir, who had been a great soldier.

BSB  § Now this was the allotment for the tribe of Manasseh as Joseph’s firstborn son, namely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh and father of the Gileadites, who had received Gilead and Bashan because Machir was a man of war.

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וַ⁠יְהִ֤י הַ⁠גּוֹרָל֙

and=he/it_was the,allotment

The author is using the term lot by association to mean the territory that was assigned by casting lots. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “And a territory was assigned by lot”

Note 2 topic: writing-background

כִּי ה֖וּא בְּכ֣וֹר יוֹסֵ֑ף

that/for/because/then/when he/it firstborn Yōşēf/(Joseph)

The author is reminding readers of what he has already told them in 16:4, that the descendants of Joseph had become the two tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh. So most of the tribal allotments went to descendants of Jacob’s sons, but the allotments described in 16:5–10 and in this chapter went to descendants of Jacob’s grandsons.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

לְ⁠מָכִיר֩ בְּכ֨וֹר מְנַשֶּׁ֜ה אֲבִ֣י הַ⁠גִּלְעָ֗ד

to,Machir firstborn Mənashsheh father_of the,Gilead

Be sure that it is clear in your translation that Makir, not Manasseh, was the father of Gilead. Alternate translation: “For Makir, who was the firstborn of Manasseh and who was the father of Gilead”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

כִּ֣י ה֤וּא הָיָה֙ אִ֣ישׁ מִלְחָמָ֔ה וַֽ⁠יְהִי ל֖⁠וֹ

that/for/because/then/when he/it it_became (a)_man war and=he/it_was to=him/it

The author is using the singular pronouns he and him, representing Makir, by association to mean his descendants. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or plain language. Alternate translation: “because his descendants were great warriors, so to them”

Tribal Allotments of the Promised Land

After the Israelites had conquered portions of the Promised Land and Joshua had grown old, the Lord directed him to divide the rest of the land among the tribes of Israel as their inheritance (Joshua 13-20). The eastern tribes had already been allotted their land under Moses’ leadership (Numbers 32), but they continued to help the other tribes drive out the Canaanites from land west of the Jordan River. The Lord also instructed the Israelites to designate several cities of refuge, where someone could flee for protection from an avenger if they accidentally killed someone (Numbers 35; Joshua 20).
